Re: What to do in order to reduce light/noise sensitivity and improve sleep?

[Guest guest]

You may want to try piracetam.

Its a neuroprotective/nootropic.. It seems to help me in many situations in

which I feel bad. Your mileage may vary, though. Everybody is different.

Piracetam and its relatives work on the GABA-nergic system.. They improve

memory and neural functioning, and are often used to normalize brain

processes. They can rotect against a wide range of toxins.

Even gamma radiation, like NAC does!

When I was getting a lot of mold exposure, I would always find it very hard

to sleep and piracetam always calmed my mind down and gave me a few hours of

relief from the mold headaches. (Usually around six hours of relief, which

is its duration of action.)

You may also want to try cholestyramine (sucks low-molecular-weight

biotoxins out of your bile where they accumulate)

Taurine increases bile flow.. I know that. Its also calming, so is

magnesium..

,

Have you thought about asking this 'doctor' for your money back, or

going to the Better Business Bureau to make a complaint about his/her

taking your money but not treating you?

" CFS is not an illness " is wrong, and its against current medical

wisdom. Even the CDC (!!!) has now acknowledged that CFS is a disease,

so your 'doctor' was way out in left field for saying CFS is a

psychological condition and you would be within your rights, i think

to demand a refund because he did not give you what you were paying

him for.

If more people did this, then we wouldn;t have this problem with so

called 'doctors'.

Thats the whole idea of the medical marketplace.

They ask us to pay, but for what, being insulted?

Seriously.

You need a new doctor. The one you have is worthless.

I would investigate Lyme disease/co infections with those symptoms.

Thanks for your answers. She is really one of the worst doctors I

know but unfortunately we don't have any CFS specialists here in

Germany. It's really hard to discuss things over and over again

without moving forward at all. That's why I want to try it the non-

prescription-way with supplements and herbs.

I did not have to pay anything because I have a non private health

insurance which would be ranged between a normal insurance and

Medicare in the US.

I bought some valerian root today and will add some magnesium +

histamine blockers later. I'll tell you if it works.

Hi ,

Here are some things (all nonprescription) that Amy Yasko recommends for

GABA-gluatmate balancing (which seems to be more or less the same as Cheney's

GABA-NMDA):

Pycnogenol

Grape seed extract

GABA

Branched Chain Amino Acids (ONLY leu/ileu/val)

(discontinue immediately if urines smell like " maple syrup " )

Sublingual cyanocobalamine (B12)

Sublingual hydroxycobalamine (B12)

Nerve Calm RNA

Trina

Dr. Cheney lists Magnesium/Taurine and Histamine Blockers as NMDA

blockers and Klonopin, Neurontin, valerian root as GABA agonists.

I used to take some magnesium tablets but I did not feel any change.

Since I cannot get prescriptions for the other meds I'd really love

to know what I could to in order to improve my light/noise

sensitivity. What kind of valerian root does Dr. Cheney recommend?

Is there anything else I can to in order to increase GABA or reduce

NMDA?

I'm looking forward to reading your answers.
